Intro:

G - A7 - C - C



Verse 1 :

G             	     A7
Happiness is just a word to me,
        C                           F
And it might have meant a thing or two
		  G
if I had known the difference.

G                   A7
Emptiness, a lonely parody,
	C               F
And my life, another smokin’ gun
	       G             A7
A sign of my indifference.


Always keepin’ safe inside
      C                     F
Where no one ever had a chance 
                 G         A7
To penetrate a break in.


Let me tell you some have tried,
       C                F
but I slam the door so tight 
                     G
That they could never get in.



Verse 2 :

G                  A7
Kept my cool under lock and key
      C
And I never shed a tear
  F                G
Another sign of my condition.

G                      A7
Fear of love or bitter vanity
     C
That kept on the run
    F                      G          A7
The main of events at my confession.


I kept a chain upon my door
           C                    F
That would shake the shame of Cain
               G          A7
into a blind submission.


The burning ghost without a name 
          C                 F
Was still calling all the same 
                   G
But I just wouldn’t listen.



Chorus 1 :

G
The longer I'd stall

The further I'd crawl
A
The further I'd crawl

The harder I'd fall
C	      F          G
I was crawlin' into the fire


G
The more that I saw

The further I'd fall
A
The further I'd fall

The lower I'd crawl
C	      F          G
I kept fallin' into the fire



Bridge :

G - G - A - A - C - F - G - G



Verse 3 :

A              B
Suddenly it occurred to me
    D                      G
The reason for the run and hide
               A
Had totaled my existance

                    B
Everything left on the other side
      D                         G
Could never be much worse that this
                   A
But could I go the distance

B7
I faced the door and all my shame
        D                    G
Tearin' off each piece of chain
             A
Until they were broken

B7
But no matter how I tried
          D                  G
The other side was locked so tight
                    A
The door it wouldn't open



Chorus 2 :


Gave it all that I got

And started to knock
    B
Shouted for someone

To open the lock
       D    G                A
I just gotta get through the door


And the more that I knocked

The hotter I got
     B
The hotter I got

The harder I'd knock
       D    G                  A
I just gotta break through the door

                      A
Gotta knock a little harder
                      B
Gotta knock a little harder
                      D
Gotta knock a little harder
                   A
Break through the door

                      A
Gotta knock a little harder
                      B
Gotta knock a little harder
                      D
Gotta knock a little harder
                   A
Break through the door

                      A
Gotta knock a little harder
                      B
Gotta knock a little harder
                      D
Gotta knock a little harder
                   A
Break through the door

                      A
Gotta knock a little harder
                      B
Gotta knock a little harder
                      D
Gotta knock a little harder
                   A
Break through the door

                      A
Gotta knock a little harder
                      B
Gotta knock a little harder
                      D
Gotta knock a little harder
                   A
Break through the door

                      A
Gotta knock a little harder
                      B
Gotta knock a little harder
                      D ver-2
Gotta knock a little harder
                A ver-2
Break down the door
